Abbotsford Water Feature Maintenance

An outdoor garden fountain can add a lot of ambience to your space. From the sound of running water to a bit of decoration, it is great to spruce up your living space, but what about interiors? For those larger areas, such as casinos, shopping malls or multi-unit spaces like condos or apartment buildings, caring for a water fountain is complicated – but our Puddle Pool Pros can help! Professional Abbotsford water feature maintenance offers options for regularly scheduled care and cleaning designed to keep your system running.

Whenever you are dealing with complex hookups, such as electrical and water lines, it is always better to consult a professional before getting your hands dirty. It is easy enough to skim floating debris off of surfaces but when it comes to complicated issues, proper removal means having the know-how and technique to treat these areas safety – so leave it to the pros!

What to Know About Water Fountain Cleaning

Unlike other basic surfaces around your home, treating a water fountain properly requires more than white vinegar and a rag to get the right results. Noticing something like white scale build-up on walls and flooring of fountains, or algae buildup can quickly lead to widespread damage and the need for costly repairs and replacements.

Property owners expect to see some algae buildup around an outdoor water fountain but are often taken aback when they start to see this invasive growth indoors. It is tough to imagine just how fountains can become contaminated but the truth is, there are plenty of ways for your system to suffer. More than simple scrubbing, your fountain should be cleaned according to its size, style, design and materials. If your water feature is made up of tiles or natural stone, for example, it is important to clean in between tiles, in corners and any potential problem areas.

While the majority of fountains use fresh water sources, not all of them do. Catering your cleaning process to the exact specifications of your unique space can help to achieve the best outcome. Having scale, algae or debris not only leaves surfaces looking worse for the wear but they can lead to issues with your circulation system. Forcing pumps and filters to work harder than they have to leads to unnecessary wear and tear, which means incurring costs for repairs and replacements. Simple steps and expert fountain care mean getting the full lifespan out of your system.
